Lathe Turning Insert Holder Pafana S12M-SCLCR 06 — external turning tool holder, right-hand

Pafana S12M-SCLCR 06 is a lathe turning insert holder designed for external turning operations on lathes. The holder accepts indexable turning inserts and secures them with a clamping mechanism to provide stable cutting during turning, facing and profiling tasks. Configured for right-hand cutting, this external turning tool holder is suited to metalworking environments where a rigid and repeatable insert mounting is required.

Advantages

The S12M-SCLCR 06 tool holder offers reliable insert clamping and a robust body that reduces vibration and improves surface finish consistency. Its right-hand orientation simplifies setup for standard external turning operations and helps maintain cutting geometry across repeated cycles. The design supports quick insert replacement and consistent positional accuracy for repeatable machining results.

Suitable for

• External turning of shafts and cylindrical parts
• Facing and profiling operations on lathes
• Medium- to heavy-duty metal cutting where rigid tooling is needed
• Workpieces requiring repeated, dimensional consistency

Key specifications

• Tool style: external turning tool holder
• Orientation: right-hand cutting
• Accepts indexable turning inserts compatible with S12M holder geometry
• Clamping: secured insert clamping mechanism for stable insert retention
• Material: hardened steel body for rigidity and vibration resistance
• Application: designed for turning, facing and profiling on lathes

How to use

Mount the Pafana S12M-SCLCR 06 holder in the lathe tool post or turret according to the machine’s clamping and alignment procedures. Install a compatible indexable insert into the pocket, ensure correct seating and tighten the clamping screw to the recommended torque for secure retention. Set the tool height to centerline, verify orientation for right-hand cutting, and perform a test cut at conservative feed and speed settings. Adjust cutting parameters and insert position as needed to achieve the required surface finish and dimensional accuracy.

Usage recommendations

Use inserts rated for the workpiece material and machining conditions; maintain correct tightening torque and periodically inspect the holder and clamping components for wear. For improved results, match insert geometry and grade to the machining task and use appropriate coolant or cutting fluid when required.
